Megabakin Posted April 13, 2002 Share Posted April 13, 2002 Its starting to get boring with all these depressing topics. Im mean, suicide, drugs, broken hearts, trust, love and life, and many other topics where people go there and feel sorry for themselves. Ive gone through a great share or troubles too, but I decided that if I never got over them I would get nowhere in life, and I would always be held down by those memories. But, I moved on. I mean for one thing your life cant be that bad if you have ANY access to a computer. Most people in other countries dont have a computer, nonetheless the internet. Ive read stories of people who have gone through way harsher problems then ours, but they decided that to always be under the memories was not a good life to live, and they moved on. All I ask is that we atleast try to move on, try not to talk about what has happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In any case, I agree with you. But I guess that people will always have problems that they want to discuss with their friends...and really, General Discussion is a place where these kind of topics can be talked about. Still, I agree with you. It'd be nice to encourage discussions which aren't so self centered, once in a while.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may sound cold-hearted when I say this; it's just for sympathy... some even do it for a joke *remembers one of them* But JC, I completely agree with you.[/SIZE] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Morph Posted April 13, 2002 Share Posted April 13, 2002 [font=arial][size=1] Yes, I agree, all of these people have come to Otaku to have fun, and they see depressing or bad topics, thats no fun at all. We need topics about good things not the bad.[/size][/font] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sara Posted April 13, 2002 Share Posted April 13, 2002 [COLOR=orangered][FONT=century gothic]Yes, we seem to be in the "I hate my life" phase again. But a phase it is...one topic spurs others like it. This, too, shall pass. [/FONT] [/COLOR] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Matt Posted April 13, 2002 Share Posted April 13, 2002 [color=red][b]I agree that there are too many sad topics. It just brings down the mood of the board. We used to have happy, fun topics. Now they are few and far between....[/b][/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted April 13, 2002 Share Posted April 13, 2002 [color=royalblue]Well, if you are going to complain about such topics...maybe you should create good topics to counter the bad ones. ;) Afterall, talking about it ain't gonna do much. :)[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To counter the bad topics, just make new ones like James said. Its genius....[/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megabakin Posted April 13, 2002 Author Share Posted April 13, 2002 Fight a huge raging fire with a huge controlled fire? I think if we did that, this board would get clogged badly. Its almost impossible to reduce the depression factor here because of those topics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/B][/QUOTE] [color=royalblue]My contention is merely that, rather than creating topics which are specifically designed to complain about such depression topics...you instead focus on creating positive topics to balance the depressing ones. :) All it requires is a little common sense. :)[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
